<H2>Overview</H2>

<P>
    The class templates <CODE>basic_file_source</CODE>, <CODE>basic_file_sink</CODE> and <CODE>basic_file</CODE> are wrappers for <CODE>std::basic_filebuf</CODE> which are <A HREF="http://www.boost.org/libs/utility/CopyConstructible.html"  TARGET="_top">CopyConstructible</A> and <A HREF="http://www.boost.org/libs/utility/Assignable.html">Assignable</A>. They are useful whenever one wants to access a file without managing the lifetime of a standard file stream or stream buffer. This is because when a stream or stream buffer is added to a <A HREF="filtering_streambuf.html"><CODE>filtering_streambuf</CODE></A> or <A HREF="filtering_stream.html"><CODE>filtering_stream</CODE></A> it is stored as a reference which must remain valid until that stream or stream buffer is removed from the chain.
</P>
<P> 
    The most common specializations are accessible via the typedefs <CODE>file_source</CODE>, <CODE>file_sink</CODE>, <CODE>file</CODE>, <CODE>wfile_source</CODE>, <CODE>wfile_sink</CODE> and <CODE>wfile</CODE>.
